I was treated like I wasn't welcome from the minute I walked in. I was seated, I was only one in the place. I was rushed to order, even though I told her twice I would like to have my margarita and chips and salsa,....she kept coming back. Then when I finally did get my food, they were cleaning up around me and soooo rude anout it. One worker was even on his phone while he was cleaning. I don't know about you, but I love listening to people's conversations and smelling harsh chemicals while I'm trying to enjoy a quesadilla and marg. ‍ I really wish they would've just said, " Hey lady, we're closing early tonight" when I walked in the door. Could've saved myself $30, 30 minutes and a sh*t ton of aggravation. Anybody here in town know who owns that place?

It's difficult to see driving by due to signage restrictions on the square. This is a family restaurant with hosts and chefs Maria and husband Julio, two very gracious people who source all ingredients locally and cook everything in house. They love mingling with the patrons and said nothing is purchased from food distributors premade. The result is fabulous! For perhaps the first time in my eating career, the rice and beans were not dry. The two beef tacos were ordered one Mexican style and one American style and both were great. The chicken taco salad was overloaded with tasty meat, and neither plate had any hint of 'seasoning from a bottle'. And you know what? I've been a critic of over feeding at Mexican restaurants. The plate is sure to fill the hungriest growing teen and adult with some to take home but without leaving a huge amount to waste. Opened in March 2025, decor is very simple, very attractive and extraordinarily clean. Seats were very comfortable for our bad backs. Plenty of free parking from the front door to a block away. It feels very good to be able to write something good about a business. Go there. By the time you read this they will have alcohol, with five sizes of Margaritas up to a bowl size 60 ounces with several options ! You too will have a new favorite Mexican Restaurant.

OMG! The only reason I loved going to Indiana Beach was for the amazing tacos!…read more I was visiting a customer in Monticello looking for someplace for lunch. I got on Yelp of course! I saw The Taco Shoppe - one of the first review I read explained how the taco stand was no longer in Indiana Beach/ but had opened shop 1 mile from where I was! Trust me I knew this was the place for me!!! Anyone that has been to Indiana Beach must remember these delicious tacos! They are nothing fancy/ just ground beef lettuce snd cheese- with the AMAZING taco sauce! You order at a Windiw- pick up at the next- there are a few picnic tables. I noticed a steady stream of people walking up the steps to place orders! This is a must stop if you have fun memories of the tacos at Indiana Beach!

There's something to be said about knowing your strengths and understanding your clientele. If…read moreyou've ever been to Indiana Beach on Lake Shafer, you've probably had tacos from the now closed Taco Shoppe. It was a staple for years at the amusement park, and gained such a following that when they closed a few years back, their regulars (myself included) were devastated. So much so that the owners decided to re-open the business about three miles away in downtown Monticello, IN. The recipe for their success is a simple one. Keep the menu simple. Find a niche product that differentiates your establishment from the dozens of other taco joints in the area and only open for a select amount of time so that you always leave them wanting more. The Taco Shoppe is a carry-out only and has no inside seating at all. In fact, there's no "inside" of the business. You order from one window and pick up your food from another. There's a handful of picnic tables in the lot next door, but that's it. So what's the secret??? Tough to describe. First of all, the soft shell corn tortillas are flash fried, maybe?!? Whatever they do to them, they are delicious. Their ground beef is also kind of a mystery. It's unlike any beef taco I've had before, and my fat ass has had PLENTY of tacos in my 52 years. They serve the tacos with red sauce (mild) and green sauce (hot). They are both amazing. Their red sauce is on the sweeter side, and I can't compare it to anything else really... Like everything else about this place, it's totally unique. The Taco Shoppe is one of those places that if you know about it.... you know. You get it.
